Information:

The Muslim cemetery and mosque buil­ding in Aghbulag village, Cham­barak dist­rict, Goycha mahal. The oldest ceme­tery of Agbulag village is the cemetery with the same name, which was built in the place called "Duzdag" before Islam. A second cemetery was built in the place called "Dikdash" (where the Baldirghanli river meets the old village road). This ce­metery also belongs to a very ancient pe­riod. The last two Aghbulag cemete­ries con­sisted of cemeteries on the road en­tering the village from the direction of Shor­ja and Chambarak. The cemetery at the western entrance of the village (on the side of Chambarak) was more than five hundred years old. There was no burial in this cemetery for the last fifty years. The last and modern cemetery of the village was a cemetery built in 1935 on the side of Shorja village, on the hill at the foot of the village, on the left of the road, on a blue-black gravel place called "Cakhmag­li". Aghbulag village mos­­que was built in 1895. Karbalayi Abbas laid the founda­tion stone of the mosque building and the first stone of the arched bridge inside Aghbu­lag. Agh­bu­lag mosque was destro­yed by Arme­nians in 1988. The first Ar­me­nians mo­ved here in 1988 after the vil­lagers were expelled from the village due to ethnic cleansing and deportation.
